Definitions: Workforce Development provides for focused safety and skills training to all operations, maintenance and staff personnel. Classes feature OSHA 10 and 30 Classes, operations mandatory safety and skills instruction and retraining and specialty training (TIMS, CDL, FDNY instruction, Wrecker Driver Instruction and Roadway Safety Rules). Fleet Preventative Maintenance Inspections are conducted at each location to improve the customer and worker safety environment. Inspections identify potential hazardous roadway or facility conditions and prescribe corrective actions to eliminate hazards. Safety Taskforce Inspections are conducted by the joint Labor and Management Committee at each facility throughout the year on a rotating basis. The inspections consist of reviewing past accident and incident experiences/reports and facility safety reports. The Taskforce meets with location management and union representatives and makes a complete tour of the facility. The Taskforce is comprised of representatives of the Safety and Operations groups and has representation from each of the represented unions. Construction Safety Inspections are conducted by an independent safety monitor to ensure that the necessary components for a safe construction are present. Inspections include review of safety organization, job hazard analysis, safe work plans for specific high risk activities, personal protective equipment, fire protection, industrial hygiene, and training. Fire Code Audits are required by the NYS Uniform Fire Prevention Code. They are conducted by the Safety and Health Department at each building and facility throughout the Agency. They feature a review of fire prevention activities and the condition of fire fighting and suppression equipment. FDNY Liaison Visits are conducted on a regular basis (typically twice a year) whereby local fire companies visit and tour the facilities to become familiar with the structures and buildings and the fire equipment provided. This facilitates the development of strategies for fighting fires and responding to emergencies. Additionally, special drills and training exercises are conducted to drill on communications and special rescue operations should they be required.
